You've Got Mail!


I'm not sure what the Finance Authority of Maine has to say to a 4 month old, but this is Ayda's first piece of mail. And they even spelled her name right! She's so grown up...

Johnny Jumper


Nana and Mumma thought I was ready for my Johnny Jumper but I'm not. I have no concept of jumping. They kept bouncing me up and down, which was nice and all, but really I was more interested in tasting my new toy than playing with it. It's delicious by the way.

Hungry Hungry Hippo!


I love to eat. I am now eating cereal and formula because sucking on the booby is just too slow these days! But when Mumma tries to feed me formula from a bottle I get really MAD! I'm no fool -- I know she's got the good stuff and that's what I like best.

I get very excited when I get a bottle and I like to hold it like I'm the boss, because, let's face it, I am. Sometimes my fingers get in the way -- I haven't figured out how to really work those yet.

Right now I weigh about 16 pounds and I'm 3 1/2 months old! I'm a growing girl...

Out for a Walk


Daddy and I went over to Grandma's for dinner last night. I provided some entertainment -- singing -- while everyone ate. It was a nice night out so Nana and Mimi decided to take me for a stroll. Miles came too! He rode in the bottom of my stroller for a while. I didn't even know about it until I saw the photo because I slept through the entire walk!

Nana picked some pretty yellow flowers on the way back. She let me hold them for a while. I love yellow!

Bad Girl

I was a bad girl this weekend but I don't even care!
We all went out to The Olive Garden for Nana's birthday dinner. Unfair! The food smelled so good and I couldn't have any because I don't have teeth yet. I let them have it. I was fussy fussy fussy so that Daddy or Papa would walk me around outside. It was a really nice night out and I DID NOT want to be stuck at a table with food I couldn't eat. I have needs too ya know!

Bed Head

Last night Mum and I went to Grandma's house to have Subway sandwiches with Grandma and Aunt Mimi. I hadn't seen them in so long! While the girls were eating Mum put me down for a little nap. But I rolled over on my back and it freaked me out because I had never done it before. I started crying and Mimi came back in and rolled me over and I was fine. Pfew!

Big Girl

So I am officially 3 months old now. My Aunt Lisa sent me a purple rubber seat thing that I can sit up in. I've also noticed that I'm getting pudgier -- which only makes me more adorable!

I had cereal for the first time this weekend. How yummy! I've been so hungry lately that having something besides milk is pretty cool.

I've also started losing my hair. Yikes. Mum is embarrassed about it because I'm losing it across the back of my head leaving a patch on top and down by the base of my neck untouched. It's like a weirdo baby mullet. I couldn't care less buy my parents seem concerned.

Did I mention that I'm modeling now? Not for profit, mind you. But I had my first baby photos taken on Friday. Mum thinks they're going to come out great! We'll see.

A Hot Summer Day




Mum, Dad, Mimi and Papa took a float down the Stillwater River last week. It was so hot out! Nana and I went for a stroll then met them in Webster Park for a picnic.

I have been having a hard time pooping lately, and combined with the excessive heat I have been a very unhappy baby! Daddy gave me a pooper pellet the other day and I've been filling my pants to the brim ever since. AND I think I'm cutting some teeth already -- or something. I am a very advanced baby...
